Nearly twenty years ago, Dr. Turkle established an aesthetics department within our surgical practice because she realized there are some problems that are better handled with less invasive treatment. In addition, it is her belief that there are many products and treatments that really work and that can delay the need for surgery or prolong one’s investment in surgery.

Your skin can’t glow if it is unhealthy, sun-damaged or aging. Professional skin care treatments and products can clean dead skin cells and debris from your skin, reduce pore size, reduce redness and hyperpigmentation, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, tighten lax skin, reduce hair and more. More complex problems such as rosacea and extremely sensitive skin can be treated as well.

Just as important is that skin care products that really work contain more active ingredients and penetrate more deeply into the skin than those you buy over-the-counter.

The licensed medical aestheticians at Phases Skin Care and Laser Center are the best trained and best qualified professionals in the state. They are specifically trained to function in a medical setting, under the supervision of board-certified plastic surgeons, to offer advanced therapies and the latest in aesthetic treatments and products. They receive regular continuing education to keep them up-to-date on the latest developments in their field.

Whether you are interested in skin rejuvenation and resurfacing, skin tightening, body sculpting, facials, peels, laser hair removal or other services, your first step is to schedule an aesthetics consultation to discuss your needs, your goals and your timeline. Whether your skin has special needs or not, you will benefit from the expertise and experience of our medical aestheticians.

Spring is here! I hope you are enjoying the buds on the trees and the flowers peeking up through the mulch. Spring is a time of renewal and it’s a great time to think about summer! Pools, boats, beaches and bathing suits. Sunglasses, sunhats, SPF and shaving. Wait, shaving? Well, toss your razors and depilatories because laser hair removal is your new best friend and we have the right ones to treat everyone – men, women, fair skin, dark skin and even tanned skin! This is the best time to get your treatments, as it takes around 5-8 sessions to see the best results. Our licensed aestheticians at Phases Skincare and Laser Center have extensive knowledge about how to best treat ALL skins, how to prep before treatments and what to expect afterwards. Facial areas such as upper lip, chin, beard and neck can be treated every 4 weeks. Body areas such as bikini line, underarms, legs and backs can be treated every 6 weeks.

In a hurry? No worry – we have a laser that can treat a men’s back in around 10 minutes! Don’t go another summer wishing you had started this year, feel confident all year long having treated yourself to the beauty of laser hair removal.
